F.CD.1482 Tail Pipes - Twin Exhaust System. F.CD.1486 Mounting of Rear Silencer - " " The above schemes shew the rear portion of the twin exhaust system required for the above chassis. It will be necessary to add two 3.500" dia. holes in the rear arm of the cross to allow an intermediate pipe between the front and rear Burgess mufflers. These schemes used in conjunction with F.CD.1450 and 1465 should be sufficient to complete the exhaust system for the above chassis. Please detail and instruct the required number of sets.
